Agreed…look past the final score and into the way the team played.
Offensive execution was crisp, our receivers were catching the ball and linemen were getting good run blocks.
Defensively, we were making tackles with a lot fewer arm-tackles.
Overall, the effort is there. The team came out and played with poise from the kickoff until late in the game when wholesale substitutions and lost focus let USF score.
We may not be a 10-2 team, but we’re not playing like a 3-9 team either. Play like that in each conference game, plus stay healthy, and we’ve got a real chance of playing in a bowl and not one in Charlotte.
